CURTAIN-POLE AND SHADE-ROLLER HOLDER.

T all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, SYLVESTER A. Dzr- MIAN, a citizen of the UnitedStates, residing at Buffalo, in the county of Erie and State of NewYork, have invented new and useful Improvements in Curtain-Pole andShade-Roller Holders, of which the following is a specification.

This invention is an improved window fixture for application to the headof a window and for use in supporting a curtain pole and also forsupporting the roller of the window shade and the said inventionconsists in the construction, combination and arrangement of deviceshereinafter described and claimed.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is an elevation of a windowfixture constructed in accordance with this invention, showing the sameattached to the upper portion of a window. Fig. 2 is a detail perspective view of the same.

In accordance with this invention I pro vide a bar 1 which comprisesmembers 2, 8 which members are disposed in overlapped relation and theinner end of the member 2 is formed with lateral extensions 1 which arebent downwardly from the face of said.

member 2 slight distance at right angles to the plane of said member 2and are then bent toward each other to form flanges 5 which are parallelwith the plane of said member 2, the said lateral extensions andparallel flanges forming a guide and support for the reception of theinner end portion of the member 3 so that the members 2, 3 are slidablyconnected together and hence the bar is longitudinally adjustable sothat it may be caused to fit a window of any width. The members of thebar are provided with openings 6 for the reception of screws 7 whichserve to secure the members of the bar to the window head as shown inFig. 1. The members of the bar are made of sheet metal, the guiding andsupporting elements 4, 5 being struck up from the same and formedintegral therewith. The outer end of each member of the bar is outturnedat right angles to the general plane of the bar to form arms 7 and thesaid arms are formed at their outer ends with guiding and supportinglugs 8. The members of the bar are provided near their outer ends withlongitudinal slots 9 and the said arms are provided with slots 10.Brackets 11, each of which is preferably made of sheet metal compriseeach an arm Specification of Letters Patent.

12 and a semicircular supporting arm 13. The arms 12 of the saidbrackets extend through and are slidable in the lugs 8, said armsbearing against the arms 7 of the bar members and being adjustablelongitudinally thereon so that the curved arms 13 may be extended as farfrom the window as may be desired and bolts 14 which operate in theslots are employed to secure the arms 12 to the arms 7, are slidable inthe said slots to admit of the adjustment of the brackets and areprovided with winged nuts 15 to secure the brackets at any desiredadjustment.

In connection with the bar 1 I also provide a pair of shade rollerholding brackets 16 each of which is also made of a strip of sheetmetal, one end of which is bent at right angles to form an outwardlyextending hori- Zontal arm 17, the major portion of such shade holdingbracket forming a bracket arm 18 which arm 18 has a longitudinal slot20. The said arms 18 of the shade holding brackets bear against theouter side of the bar 1 at points intersecting the slots 9 and areconnected to said bar 1 by bolts which operate in the intersecting slots9, 19 so that the brackets 16 may be adjustable longitudinal of the bar1 according to the length of the shade roller and may be also adjustedvertically with respect to said bar 1 to dispose the shade roller at anydesired elevation. The said bolts 20 are provided with winged nuts 91 tosecure the said brackets 16 at any desired adjustment. The arms 17 ofthe brackets 16 are provided with suitable openings 22 to receive thestuds or ournals of the sash roller.

A window fixture thus constructed is exceedingly light, cheap andsimple, is very strong and durable, presents a sightly appearance, isvery readily attached to a window and detached therefrom and may beadjusted to fit a window of any size.

Having thus described the invention what is claimed as new is A windowfixture of the class described comprising a bar for application to awindow and having outstanding arms at its ends, said bar and said armshaving longi- Patented A11 81, 1909 ing the arms of said brackets to thearms of bar and detachably and adjustably securing 10 the bar andmovable in the slots of the arms said brackets to said bar.
